An Airbnb host in Durham, North Carolina, is facing significant challenges as renters-turned-squatters refuse to vacate her property. The single mother, who relies on the rental income, has been unable to remove the squatters, who have even taunted her by putting up a 'no trespassing' sign. According to court documents, the host has filed a complaint in court, seeking an eviction order to regain control of her property. The squatters have caused damage to the property, including ripping off doors and sinks and throwing beds through windows. She has lost months of income due to this situation.
